#kirby#bugs#worm#ask to tag#daily kirby#my art#digital#hal laboratory#nintendo#I would always hang out with my dad when he gardened and take every worm he dug up#to carry it gently around the yard and eventually set it safely away from the garden tools#they're so cute I love them#the worst part about my wheelchair is it's much harder to stop and move worms out of harm's way :(#I wanna make a little worm farm once we have more space#like obviously there's value in it and it can either benefit your own garden or make a little profit in the right neighborhood#but it's entirely an excuse to own Many Worms.#favorites

#one of the most beautiful sunsets I’ve ever seen the pictures don’t do it justice at all it took my breath away#it took up the whole sky: all the colors and cloud shapes were magical I feel like I was in another world#took over a hundred pictures it was so hard to chose#once again I hadn’t left my bed at all for 11 days#I felt so weak and was in so much pain & was about to go back inside then this vision appeared & it was all worth it <3#will always marvel at a beautiful sunset#this day wasn’t completely wasted#sunset#sky#stunning#breathtaking#beautiful#colorful#pink#orange#vibrant#vivid#colors#nature#garden#fall#autumn#November#coucher de soleil#magical#beauty#purple#clouds#cloudy#skies

I have such mad respect for people who can grind Path of Terra farming in Star Stable. How do you do it??? It's so absolutely mind numbing. There is nothing enjoyable about it, it's just excessively tedious (and clunky) repetitious clicking
Anything requiring precision clicking in SSO is gonna be clunky, so a whole mechanic that is just that? For like 20-30 minutes harvesting and replanting an entire garden? Awful. Miserable. Wretched. I don't know how some of you guys have the patience and I am in awe of you.
#sso#ssoblr#god I wish we could 'save' our favorite garden plot set ups#and then just click one button to harvest and replant an entire section of the garden#instead of one at a time.#is it a mouse sensitivity thing?? I feel like every computer I've played on has always just been clunky with a mouse#although we all know SSO has not great controls#they just aren't that smooth they don't usually feel that great#'like driving a boat' I know someone said once haha#like horseback is generally okay or at least okay enough#but my god is it such a difference going to another game that has tight and snappy controls and mouse precision#and I generally LIKE farming in games#but SSO's farming? uuuUUGH I can't stand it I only did it enough to finish out Terra

babygirl doodles from a little while ago
#my art#oc#mockley#anthro#my favourite of the bunch is the top right#just kidding it's the one directly in the middle. the one that looks dumb#everyone will be glad to know that there are two wood pigeons nesting in our garden at the moment#making for a total of 3 ugly as hell muppet babies that i get to look at. they always pretend not to see me as if that makes them invisible#you're fresh out of luck baby pigeons. i will be gazing upon you lovingly until you move out#one pigeon is nesting in the grapevine and scared the absolute shit out of me by bursting out when i tried to harvest my beautiful grapes#i looooove late summer/early autumn. fruit season baybeeee. freakin apples and plums and damsons and pears and grapes and greengages baybee#anyone here ever tried a greengage???? probably the best fruit in the world and no one cares about it. SICKENING.#i assume most of my followers r from america and maybe don't have greengages but you should aim to try one at least once in your life#preferably after plucking it from the tree with your own hand. and also stealing it from someone else's tree#just kidding i would never advocate scrumping haha....unless....?

a kiss on the corner of the mouth, hoping for more but expecting nothing — because how can she? how can bernadetta ever assume? she is scared, always so scared, and not of yuri—no, never of yuri—but of trespassing where she may not be welcome because she would sooner bury herself than do that to them. a repulsive thing like her has no business yearning. (they have already suffered too much.)
so after what feels like ages in some nerve-wracking limbo, of fidgeting with her armored bear stuffy, bernadetta finally ducks her head to peck its fluffy snout. she does her best not to choke and sputter as she flips the plush around and nudges it against yuri's face. ashen eyes squeeze tight, awaiting their verdict. another heart-stopping laugh at best, a noise of irritation or disgust at worst? she can survive either way, she thinks, all because it's yuri.
a kiss on the corner of the mouth, hoping for more but expecting nothing ╱ another kiss prompt
Their laughter is birdsong, head twisting to press a proper kiss back to Sir Bear Stuffy's snout. How sweet of her; how silly of her. If she wants one for herself— if she wants anything, really, that they can provide, and even if she wants what that they cannot— Bernadetta need only ask. Yuri would do anything for her if she asked.
“Bernadetta~” they hum her name with a small, secret smile, a hand coming to rest on the plush's head to gently push it down. Yuri has to tease— it is as expected as the rising and setting of the sun or the pushing and pulling of the waves— affection woven into the lilting syllables of their amusement.
The mockingbird presses the back of a hand dramatically to their forehead, shaking their head. “Look at me, Bernadetta,” they moan in exaggerated despair. “So lonely that I have to turn to a stuffed animal for company!” Even then, they cannot hide the curl at the corner of their lips. “If only someone could help with that, hm?”
Slowly— always slowly, always with enough time to let her get away, if she wanted to— Yuri leans forward. Reaches a hand up tentatively to cup her face, head tilting in silent query. How could she not know by now? She would never be unwelcome, not when it was she who accepted them back into her life with such open arms when they had been prepared to face the gallows.
For all the grace she has extended to them, they only wish she would offer even a fraction of it to herself.
“You can ask,” they murmur, holding her gaze. And maybe there is a part of them that needs her to ask, a part of them buried under all the confidence they'd built up as walls that needs to hear her say it, just to know for sure. “Anything— ask me for anything. The answer will always be yes.”
Anything for her. Only ever for her.

the funniest thing about the over the garden wall soundtrack is that the entire thing is like calming jazz folk music and then there’s just this random 30 second electronic pop song three quarters of the way through
#i know it's because of the halloween party#but it's always such a jumpscare#i think it's so funny#i played it for my friend once with no context for each song and they haven't seen otgw and they were like w h a t#otgw#over the garden wall

i could write an essay on how the character’s clothes in one piece show their emotional journey. i think about it so much.
#ESPECIALLY NAMI!!!#like. just look at her romance dawn outfit vs literally everything else she wears#yes she’s covering the tattoo but like. she’s unbothered in only a bra in little garden. she wears just a bikini top in skypiea.#she’s finally free and her clothes symbolize that!!! she’s able to wear what she wants instead of something to either hide or showcase the#tattoo. and once she has the coverup she’s almost always showing it.#i’m tired idk if this is cohesive but. i think about her so much.#where’s the post about asl wearing each other’s colors.#and how it shows who they’re thinking about. sabo’s only blue bc of amnesia. luffy’s always wearing all three but it’s really emphasized#post timeskip. ace has little if any blue because that’s how he dealt with the grief of sabo’s ‘death’#and robin wears mostly dull colors pre timeskip and the first time we see her again her clothes are bright#she wears yellow in skypiea (fun with her new captain!) but it’s a dull yellow. enies lobby is all black. she gets some color back in#thriller bark. brook also comes back after the timeskip with brighter colors bc he’s not lonely anymore.#i’m stopping here but i could keep going.#one piece

Apparently I can meet my goal of roughly 400,000 words in 6 months if I just somehow write at least 2,200 words a day ghbjh... Almost 2,500 today... huzzah...
#Definitely not going to be able to stick with it just due to like... being realistic about my energy levels and etc. ESPECIALLY as we#enter the Evil Summer and it becomes hot all the time. But... one can attempt.. at least...#I'm also a very slow writer since I tend to re-read and edit while I write. and only move onto the next section once what I'm writing#seems okay. Which is easy for visual novel type stuff. since ''sections'' of a conversation are more clearly marked (like if you#have a menu option with 5 different dialogue choices. finish the character's response for choice 1 before moving onto 2. etc.)#Especially since when I'm done with a whole quest I always follow it up by playing through it and picking every option and making sure it#actually all works okay and etc. So I am already going to see it all a second time. Then I can go back and reorder a few words or remove#certain sentences that don't sound natural when I read them out loud (I always read it all outloud to myself since it is... just peple#talking.. it should sound like natural dialogue in their voice. etc). But my ''first draft'' is kind of not as first drafty since I pause t#edit a lot as I go along. So it also takes longer probably than it would take other people who I think treat a first draft as more#of a loose guideline or something. AANYWAY...#80F in my bedroom right now again... huzzah... I did end up finishing and recording that sims build video before the heat wave (or is#it really a heat wave if it's just summer..?? lol) came in.. but now... augh.. the editing... plus the costume photos and all else... Much#to do as always.. Often such a long todo list.. a giant scroll hung upon the walls of the evil hermit wizard tower..#Anyhow.. I hope I can finish getting ready for bed early in time to reward myself with a game of tripeaks solitaire whilst I snack on#cheddar cheese and some of those preserved artichokes in a jar. hrgm... I actually have nasturtiums (ultimate best flower) on the#deck again this year but I had to move them all into a corner today because the leaves were getting burnt by the sun lol.. Also am now more#cautiously weaving through social media to ignore all dragon age news. NOT bc of spoilers (I actually love spoilers/literally never play#any game until there's full guides on it I can read to plan my entire playthrough based on knowing exactly what I want to happen lol + mods#and etc.) but just because I'm so busy with my ownprojects I simply do not have the brainspace to dedicate... Yes I love to think#about elves and fictional universe lore. but no.. I pretend I do not see it. Does not exist to me actually. ghgj.. OHH also took som#cool pictures of flowers in the garden section of a store and I wanted to do like.. character designs based on the colors of the flowers o#something. but that might just be another unnecessary project to add to the pile.. I want to commit to the daunting task of dyeing my#hair again some time.. hrm.. this is all of the updates I can think of. As if a bunch of random tags make up for never posting anything for#weeks on end lol.. alas.. too warm to think properly I suppose.. .. I neeeeeed a long lost relative to leave me some million dollar#estate in their will so I can have the resources to move to a colder climate or something ..augh#.. but for now.. I shall toil away in my little wizard tower trying to write 2000 something words a day whilst sweating and such ghbj

New Scotland Yard: Fire in a Honey Pot (1.8, LWT, 1972)
"You make it sound very convincing."
"I beg your pardon?"
"Your Mr. Logan was seen at the club on the afternoon before it burnt."
"Oh, now, don't ask me what could have taken him there, to a place like that."
"You mean you've never heard of the protection business?"
"Isn't that what you're in?"
#new scotland yard#fire in a honey pot#1972#lwt#classic tv#bryan izzard#robert banks stewart#john woodvine#peter blythe#robin hawdon#veronica hurst#june brown#john j. carney#john baron#leslie schofield#alan curtis#john crocker#frank mills#maurice bush#yasuko nagazumi#ken halliwell#Schofield's stand in reporter returns from ep3‚ and once again Carlisle is nowhere to be seen (nor even mentioned). his place is taken by#the always reliable Peter Blythe as a rather over eager young sergeant; sadly he's underused‚ disappearing from the middle of the episode#the plot itself is some rather romantic hokum about protection rackets and gambling clubs‚ with an unbalanced (and welsh obvs) arsonist#thrown into the mix for good measure. our welsh wonder is avenging his poor mum who lost everything after being gripped by the evils of#gambling (then relatively new in a legal form; the 1960 Betting and Gaming Act had changed the landscape of gambling in the uk entirely)#this element gets dropped pretty quickly tho to focus on a seedier case of murder and a copycat fire to hide the deed; enter a rather#soap opera element of affairs‚ estranged children‚ and underworld cheating. Woodvine's love of gardening comes up again and even allows#him to hoodwink a suspect (in an entirely legal but morally dubious way). a bit of a minor entry i think‚ it's just a little silly#and distracted. also once again I am asking why a cop as senior as Woodvine is on thr ground investigating p much every crime he finds

I think it'd be really cute if a future chao garden also included wisps to some extent, like maybe they could fulfill a similar role to the animals and give your chao some stats (Lazer gives a Run stat, Rocket gives Fly, Cube gives Power, etc). Maybe a chao could even gain some wisp attributes, though I'm not sure what all those would look like
Alternatively, maybe wisps could be like... random visitors to the garden, like every so often a few will fly in and your chao might play with them for a bit. They could even be teachers! The rhythm wisp could teach chao to sing, for instance
Or, here me out - a chao garden located on Planet Wisp. It would be so relaxing
I don't think wisps need to be involved in a future garden by any means, but there's so many ways that they could make it work that it would almost feel like a missed opportunity not to have them while they still have an ongoing presence in the franchise
#sonic the hedgehog#chao garden#sonic wisps#I also feel like we haven't seen enough wisps just. chilling#because the focus is always on their powers#Let them not partake in a crisis for once kmdfslkmklsm
